Darius Robinson and Jon Gaines were added to an already lengthy list of Cardinals that featured Walter Nolen, Budda Baker and Jeremiyah Love among others.

The Cardinals, hoping to again play the role of spoiler against Denver, could be massively shorthanded in making that happen as numerous stars are staring down a legitimate possibility of missing time.
Baker, Love, Wingard and Nolen have all missed consecutive days of practice now for Arizona. With the Cardinals hoping to take advantage of a disfunctional Broncos offense, Arizona's defense needs all hands on deck.
Shifting towards the other side of the ball, the Cardinals' offense will have their work cut out against one of the league's best defenses in Denver.
“Last few years. They’re very smart. They’re very well coached," Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur said of the Broncos' defense.
"I have as much respect for ‘VJ’ (Broncos Defensive Coordinator Vance Joseph) as anyone in this league. They do it their own way. I don’t want to say they’re not with the times — whatever that means but it’s got an old-school approach to it in terms of some of their coverage and that’s a credit to them. You can tell ‘VJ’ and those guys believe in what they believe in and they’re unapologetic with it.
"They play really hard. I see 11 guys working in unison. It’s a challenge. Yes, it’s the last two weeks, but it’s really been all year, and it’s been for a few years now. We have our hands full with this group, for sure.”
